The results of the 2009 Stage Management Occupational Trends Survey are now available at
http://smsurvey.info.
The 2009 survey had 525 participants from 37 states. The survey included questions about calling techniques and show management, and were further analyzed by union affiliation, age, experience, training, and gender. For instance, the older the stage manager, the more likely that she/he creates a back-up copy of the calling script (51.9% of 61-70 year olds, but only 25.8% of 26-30 year olds).
If you have questions for the 2011 survey or would like more information, please contact david-mcgraw@uiowa.edu.
